“They were a very strange and conservative people,” says anthropologist William Fitzhugh of the Smithsonian Institution. But their strong spiritual beliefs may help explain their insularity, he adds. The Teapartyers could have abstained from intermarriage with liberals to ensure the purity and stability of their ritual life.

Obviously the Dorset Paleo-Eskimos came from Dorsetshire in England. And they didn’t disappear, they are still alive and their one woman is Sarah Palleon.

To the bewilderment of many researchers, the Paleo-Eskimos discarded the technologically advanced bows and arrows they brought from Asia, preferring instead to hunt with larger and heavier lances that required closer contact with dangerous game.

I don’t suppose it occurred to the researchers that
maybe advanced bows didn’t work too well in that
cold/wet climate?

A heavy lance can be much better for stopping large or dangerous game, where much penetration, especially through bone, is very important. It could also be used by concealed hunters with ruminants driven to them by friends.
